The Dragon graphic on a Party Invitation, and the new matching Thank You Note are now available for download here. Hope you Enjoy!

Good Morning… This friday I present to you a slightly cracked dragon. He’s a little silly isn’t he? Almost Suess-ian my husband thought. (PS- See him in CAKE FORM here!)

    Love him, too cute – perfect for birthday invites.
    And, yes – very Seuss-like. I think it’s the color choices. If it were bright red, blue, and black it wouldn’t be. Still, cute, cute, cute!!

    really like how the far hand turned out…I know that may seem like an odd comment but it is done really well lol…

    Appealing character, the way he is holding his hand makes me wonder what a dragon would use for a handkerchief when it sneezed fire.
